Jo Seddon left the NDT at the end of November (2007), choosing to spend more time working close to home and her own community, and less time dragging suitcases around the UK railway system.

Jo has made an enormously contribution to the NDT. She has strengthend and extended our work in mental health, particularly through her ability to speak with real authority about the ways in which services can build bridges for people who have been excluded from community life. She also has a wonderful warmth and humanity (and a unique co-trainer monkey!) that we'll miss very much.

No doubt the many organisations which have been helped by Jo will join the NDT in wishing her every happiness and success.
